Some late-breaking news on the injury front means we’ll get at least one lineup tweak today: Andrew MacDonald will miss today’s game and is considered “day-to-day” with an upper body injury. Tough to say for certain what happened to him in yesterday’s game considering he played a fairly normal amount of ice time for him; my haphazard guess is that something may have happened to him as a result of the fight he got in with Yanni Gourde in the first period, but who knows. In any case, John Oduya will make his Flyers debut today; our placement of him in the lineup below is a guess.
Also, Petr Mrazek will apparently start again today, despite giving up six goals on 35 shots yesterday and despite a looming three-games-in-four-days stretch later this week. Sure. Why not.
